If you want to disassociate a key equivalent with an item, press the X shown while the key equivalent field is in recording mode. A key equivalent can be any key with optional modifiers and is configured by activating the key equivalent field and pressing the key to which the item should be bound. The easiest way to perform an action (from the keyboard) is in the form of a key equivalent. TextMate offers a few ways to do this and has a simple yet powerful system to understand the current context when evaluating which action the activation method should result in, called scope selectors, which is explained in a later chapter. Most items edited in the Bundle Editor represent actions you want to execute while editing text. which will be explained in more detail in the following sections. If you select Bundles → Bundle Editor → Show Bundle Editor you will see the command center for customizing TextMate.įrom this window you can create and edit things like snippets, commands, language grammars, etc. Normally you do not need to care about this, as you inspect (and edit) the bundles through the bundle editor (which can be reached through the Window menu). The default bundles are located in /path/to/TextMate.app/Contents/SharedSupport/Bundles. A lot of functionality in TextMate is provided through various bundles, many of which are language specific.
